current 20201011 master against 7.1.0 - Win10 HC#1 highcontrast mode

Windows 10 WDM does not adequately pass theme details that LO can apply. And LO
does not read the UWP theming overlaid on the WDM.  So Windows 10 (or earlier
Win7, Win8.1) does pass in an os/DE flag for 'HighContrast' set triggering the
switch to Sifr icons and a read of what limited 'theme' details win32s passes.

IIUC getting this accessibility issue corrected on Windows will require the
native code work needed for bug 118320

We used to have the StartCenterBackgroundColor and StartCenterTextColor [1]
implemented for consistent SC UI--i.e. "Branding". 

But that was recently stripped out for bug 136555 [2] for "better" os/DE
theming support, which of course doesn't work for Windows, and not sure if the
macOS builds do better.
